Birds are quite capable of living with one leg.

That's why I took it off. So much blood from such a tiny body though.

Speaking of, how are those adorable little needle teeth? Still doing well?

They're great. Barry is finally putting on weight, he's got a little Buddha belly now... and we renamed him Barry. Dakota is still a hurricane.

IV is sick for the second time this year. First time she got oral baytril and it was traumatizing for everyone. She now puffs and blackbeards every time we touch her.
She's going back to the vet today and we're requesting injectable doxycycline.

I'm sorry Prairie. All I can say is that the pain will get less raw with time. They always leave us too soon.

I know that no words can really help, but you have my heart felt sympathy. I know this is heart breaking, and I am so so sorry that he was taken from you so soon.
